Let x be the angle. The complement is 3x + 10. The sum of two complementary angles is 90. So,
x + 3x + 10 = 90
4x + 10 = 90
4x = 80
x = 20
Plug x into the complement
3(20) + 10 = 70
The angle is 20 degrees and the complement is 70 degrees
ANSWER:
x = 10 / 3
y = 0
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem. Let's first establish the two equations which we will be using.
Equation No. 1 -
- 6x - 14y = - 20
Equation No. 2 -
- 3x - 7y = - 10
First, we will make ( x ) the subject in the first equation and simplify accordingly.
Equation No. 1 -
- 6x - 14y = - 20
- 6x = - 20 + 14y
x = ( - 20 + 14y ) / - 6
x = ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3
From this, we will make ( y ) the subject in the second equation and substitute the value of ( x ) from the first equation into the second equation to solve for ( y ) accordingly.
Equation No. 2 -
- 3x - 7y = - 10
- 7y = - 10 + 3x
- 7y = - 10 + 3 [ ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3 ]
- 7y = - 10 + [ ( - 30 + 21y ) / - 3 ]
- 7y = - 10 + ( 10 - 7y )
- 7y = - 7y
- 7y + 7y = 0
0y = 0
y = 0
Using this, we will substitute the value of ( y ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( x ) accordingly.
x = ( - 10 + 7y ) / - 3
x = [ - 10 + 7 ( 0 ) ] / - 3
x = [ - 10 + 0 ] / - 3
x = - 10 / - 3
x = 10 / 3

Answer:
distribute the 2 on the left side to become 2(x+7)-->2x+14=-4x+14, add 4x to both sides to become 2x+14+4x=-4x+14+4x-->6x+14=14, subtract 14 from both sides 6x+14-14=14-14-->6x=0 and divide both sides of the equation by 6 to get x alone, 6x/6=0/6-->x=0 so x would equal 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Even though we are using variables, we still know that "difference" means subtraction. So, if the larger is x1 and x2, those variables go first. The smaller, y1 and y2 will go second. So our problem will look like this:
(x1 < x2 ? x2 : x1) - (y1 < y2 ? y1 : y2)
